    The IS-F has made me cry.

    Haha GT2 911 is a whole league above the IS-F and M3. I'd like to see a comparo between the E90 M3 (4 door) and IS-F. E36 huh? You know anything about E36 M3s? I'm in the market for one

    The IS-F has made me cry.

    Seems like a close enough race in a drag, whole different story on a track with the AWD and the IS-F's slow manumatic. I'd say a better comparison would be to a E90 M3. Both 4 door, V8, RWD. BMW does have the ridiculously slick 7 speed DCT. The paddle shifts on it take fractions of a second...

    The IS-F has made me cry.

    I don't know, the IS-F looks meh to me. Looks too Camry-like and boring. But I still give them credit for trying. Hmm the RS4 and IS-F weigh about the same (3700 vs 3800 lbs) but the IS-F has about 50 ft-lbs on the RS4 (371 vs 317) and similar bhp. I'd imagine they'd be similar in performance...

    The IS-F has made me cry.

    Haha I felt the same way when I found out. Actually put my hand in between the real and fake tips on a friend's brother's IS-F because I couldn't believe it, and there's a good 3-4" of gap between the exhaust and the chrome tips. But I give T̶o̶y̶o̶t̶a̶ Lexus credit for at least making a sporty car

    Cycling

    There are team bikes but you have to first become part of the team. You also need your own pedals and shoes since you normally put your pedals on and ride for a day then someone else uses it the next day. There isn't a sign up list or anything its just first come first serve. I bought a new bike...

    Cycling

    Rocky Mountains.....but I never realized how steep the foothills around the academy were until I rode them. There are plenty of hills on base (Pine Drive in particular is a good climb) and many more if you ride north towards Monument or Palmer Lake

    Cycling

    As a member of the cycling team here, you can definitely bring your bike up. You can either join the team and keep it in our room, join tri and keep it in theirs, or register it and keep it down in the quad bike racks. We did well this year. A few conference wins and 18/46 overall at nationals...

    New Catholic Priest

    The new Catholic priest was a sub at my parish for a while when he was at Randolph. He's a nice guy. I forget his name but it started with a St n ended with a -ski.Polish guy. but he seemed concerned for his parishoners and pretty level headed.

    Preparing for SLS

    I went to both the West Point and USAFA SLSs and don't worry too much about the PT. West Point had some beastly PT on some days. USAFA builds up the PT daily, as they want to acclimatize you. It's about 45 minutes of push-ups, flutter kicks, etc. on the terrazzo, increasing daily. On the CFA the...
